Marius Quabeck, the creator of the magic-device-tool software that lets users install or replace their mobile operating systems, announced the fact that the tool is now available as a Snap.

That's right, you can now install the Magic-Device-Tool via a Snap package on your Ubuntu Linux operating system or a supported OS by Canonical's latest Snappy technologies. This comes as great news as you won't have to clone the GitHub repo of the software to install it on your GNU/Linux distribution.

In some other great news, it looks like the latest version of Magic-Device-Tool has been updated to CyanogenMod 14.1, but as CyanogenMod is no longer supported, the upcoming release of the tool will be rebased on the new Lineage OS Android distribution everyone is talking about these days.
